Desmond Bane found himself in hot water with NBA fans Wednesday night for a viral celebration.

The Memphis Grizzlies guard hit a three-pointer against the Philadelphia 76ers en route to a win — making Philly 2-12 to start the season.

But after the three, Bane taunted the Sixers’ Caleb Martin by appearing to use his arms like a gun and pretend to shoot Martin.

Bane extended his right arm in Martin’s direction, then pulled it back at a 90 degree angle.

Bane is of course teammates with Yes Morantwho served two separate suspensions from gun-related incidents last year and found himself in legal trouble over a fight at his house.

With Bane and Morant sharing the floor together, social media was quick to make jokes.

“Yes Morant approved cell,” wrote one user.

“Learn from your teammate” said another.

Added one more“Yeah took him to the track.”

In early 2023, Morant was seen brandishing a gun in a Denver nightclub, earning him an eight-game suspension. Months later, he repeated the offense, and he was out for 25 games.

In July 2022, Morant got into an altercation with some 17-year-olds, but a judge ruled that he acted in self-defense. Four days earlier, Morant allegedly “threatened” the head of security at a Memphis mall, and a member of Morant’s group allegedly punched him in the head.

The 2022-23 season, Indiana Pacers claimed that after an altercation between associates of Morant and the Pacers, a red laser was pointed at the team from an SUV carrying Morant, which the Pacers thought was a gun. The NBA investigated the incident and found that no “person threatened others with a weapon.”

Morant is back this season after playing in just nine games last year — he had suffered a season-ending shoulder injury just weeks after returning from his second suspension.
